Useful and HurtfuI Medicines.

There is a certain class of remedies for constipation absolutely useless. These are boluses and potions made in great part Of podophyllin. aloes, rhubarb. gamboge, and other worthless ingredients. The damage they do to the stomachs of those who use them is incalculable. They evacuate the bowels, 1t is true, but always do so violent Iy and profuseiy, and besides, gripe the bow els. Their effect is to weaken both them and the stomach. Better far to use the agreeable and salutary aperient. Hostetter' s Stomach Bitters, the laxative effect of which is never preceded by pain, or accompanied by 6 convulsive, violent action of the bowels On the contrary it inyigorates those organs, the stomach and the entire system. As means of curing and preventing malarial fevers, no medicine can compare with it, aud it remedies nervous debility, rheuma- tism, kidney and bladder inactivity, aud other inorganic ailments.

The KNIGHTS OF LABoRAND The STEAM
ER ExCELsIoR.-Me srs. Wimsatt aud Ferry
members of the executive Board of the
knights of labor for the assemblies Of the
District of Columbia, left for Washington
yesterday evening. In the morning they
had an interview with Gen. Groner the re-
suit of which could not be learned Speak.
ing on the subject of the boycott upon the
Potomac Steamboat Company by the knights
of labor, Gen. Y. D. Groner said that the
first advices he had of any such proceeding
going into effect was what he saw in the
Eirginian yesterday morning. His own in.
formation led him to believe that all that
sort of thing was in allegiance for the pres
ent. The Potomac Steamboat Company,
said ne. has good boats and runs al efficient
line, with competent officers, and it would,
no doubt, stand any fight that might be
made against it. He believed that ifany eff
fort should be made by the knights Of la
Dor or anybody else to injure the property
or interests of the company suits would be
brought promptly to punish those so under
taking, and the attempt would result in
more injury to the perpetrators than to the
company. He understood that the company
had legal advice in the premises, aud is able
10 take care Of ITSELF General Groner said
he is not member of the knights of labor,
hut no understood that the officers Of the
George Leary are, and that the mate and
engineers of the Excelsior are. The com.
pany tries to secure the bes: officers it can
set, regardless of whether they belong TO
that organization or any other, as they select
their employees with view of protecting
not only their own immediate interests, but
the interest and lives of passengers. He
supposed that the present employees will
hold their positions, and he understands
that they will, but if they do not desire to
do so, no doubt other good men can be got.
ten He thought the chief officers of the
company are best qualified to select the
men to command their boats, both in re
spect to the company's business and the
public interest If an issue should be made,
General Groner said, he would be able to
talk more freely, but at present he really
knew nothing about the matter, and had
nothing to say.-NorfoK Iirginian Of yes-
